Monday is going to be the best day you’ve had in a long time. Tuesday won’t be too shabby either. You are funny and persuasive, and the world responds well to those qualities in a person. Among your friends, you are kind of a sage these days. That explains why, this weekend, people will keep coming to you for guidance and advice.

Pisces (Feb. 20-March 20)

You wish you could help everyone. You wish you could solve the world’s problems. But you shouldn’t beat yourself up over not being all-powerful. People adore you and admire your idealism. The more you do things to help other people, the more you learn about yourself. On Sunday, take the day off and relax.

Aries (March 21-April 20)

Your recent successes are going to motivate you to make even more ambitious plans for the future. Obviously, you are good at getting what you want. But that begs the question: What do you really want? Where are you going? Where do you want to go? This is going to be a week of exploration and of sharing wild ideas among friends.

Taurus (April 21-May 21)

Early in the week you may find yourself giving in to someone, simply because you don’t feel like the battle is worth fighting. By the way, you’re right. Share your frustrations with friends. They’ll completely understand. And they’ll help you deal with it. Their humor is perfect for forgetting obnoxious people, and their loyalty to you is absolute.

Gemini (May 22-June 21)

You’re lost in the world of ideas Monday. You’ve been thinking philosophically lately and reading some pretty smart books. Don’t forget that you have a couple of pretty smart friends who would love a little intellectual banter now and again. Toward the middle of the week, you’ll have more personal things on your mind.

Cancer (June 22-July 22)

Friction is totally normal when a bunch of people sit down to work on something together. As you all figure out what to do next, don’t be afraid to think a little outside the box. Sometimes the craziest ideas are also the best ones. Don’t rush. You have all the time in the world. This weekend — especially Sunday — do something to distract yourself. Organize a dinner party and make things interesting.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Someone has a bruised ego. And that’s never a pretty thing to deal with. It might be a good idea to lay low. Do your own thing. Do some research. Listen to what other people have to say. There’s no sense in bringing your own ego into the mix, and if you play it cool for a while you’ll have so much more leverage later on.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 23)

You’re ready for a change. You’ve outgrown your old ways. Get organized. Figure out how to keep your life in order and you’ll be so much happier. The great thing about being in self-improvement mode is that it makes you a lot more patient with other people, too, and a lot more open to having fun. Libra (Sept. 24-Oct. 23)

You’re in the mood to have fun, and so are the people around you. The only downside to being social, to having so much going on, is that it’s hard not to be distracted by it. There’s a lot going on at work, too, and follow-through is more important than ever right now. Still, you’re great at building relationships, and some of your co-workers are becoming pretty good friends, too.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 22)

The rest of your life is smooth sailing, but something at home is throwing your mood out of whack. As soon as you fix whatever’s going on at home, you’ll have nothing else immediate to worry about, and you can spend the latter half of the week consumed by romance. If you’re single, this might be a good time to initiate something more serious.

Sagittarius (Nov. 23-Dec. 21)

Monday is a great day to talk to strangers. You have so much more in common with other people than you realize, and you’re a great conversationalist. You’re going to spend the entire week listening and talking to other people, and you’re going to have a blast. On Saturday, take a risk and have fun.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 20)

A new money-making scheme sounds a little risky. Instead of shaking on it right now, take a couple more days to think it over. Ask a friend who knows a thing or two about finance for some advice. In the meantime, spend time doing something creative. Paint something. Write a song.
